Feral Interactive has today announced that Tomb Raider:
Underworld will be released for the Mac on Thursday, May 31st.
Developed by Crystal Dynamics and Nixxes for Windows and originally
published by Eidos Interactive, Tomb Raider: Underworld comes to
the Mac for the first time under the Feral Legends label.

When Lara Croft uncovers proof that the Norse Underworld is
real, she realizes that it contains the answer to a mystery from
her own past, a prize worth more than any treasure in the world.
She embarks on a quest to find it, and in doing do risks unleashing
a force that could lay waste to all civilization.

As Lara, players will experience an astonishing level of
physical interaction with a beautiful, unpredictable and
treacherous world. From the crystalline waters of coastal Thailand
to the rain-lashed jungles of Mexico and on to mysterious sunken
edifices deep beneath the Arctic sea, Lara won’t stop until
she knows the truth.

With over a thousand motion-captured moves at her disposal, Lara
responds deftly to her environment by free-climbing, wall-jumping
and using found objects to create new paths. Each level is an epic
multi-stage puzzle which players will need to use all their cunning
- and Lara’s athletic abilities - to solve.

A platforming game of unparalleled sophistication, Tomb Raider:
Underworld gives players control over everything from Lara’s
outfits to whether she brandishes lethal weapons or tranquilizers.
Lara can now use her grapple to abseil and manipulate vast
mechanical devices, while the treasures of the Underworld give her
superhuman strength and the power to lay the undead to rest.

“Tomb Raider: Underworld is a great addition to the Feral
Legends label” said David Stephen, Managing Director of Feral
Interactive. “We are delighted to see Lara getting a grip on
the Mac.”

Minimum system requirements call for a 1.8GHz Intel Mac with at
least 3.0GB RAM, 128MB or better graphics card, and Mac OS 10.6.8
or later. The following cards are NOT supported: ATI X1xxx series,
